How can hospitality be radical? It can exceed expectations, ask us to give the utmost of ourselves to offer invitation. Our acts of hospitality offer the liberation and freedom found in the love of God.

To help us experience this call to hospitality, everyone is invited to partake in a Passover Seder.

The Passover offers us a glimpse into the life of Jesus and demonstrates God’s commitment to the wellbeing of all God’s children expressed through it. What might we learn about keeping the door open in welcome?

February 28 | Extravagant Generosity | Crisis Control Ministries

What is generosity? We are called to a readiness, a fullness of giving – but what most might be gained in our giving? Join us as we experience a simulation of what life may be for many in our community,

so we better understand the depth and breadth of our community’s reality.

Volunteers from around our community will join us to present the Crisis Control Poverty Simulation.

March 6 | Passionate Worship | The Rev. David Guthrie

Worship at its best connects people with God and one another, opens us to the experience of God’s grace and the doing of God’s word, and forms us into the Body of Christ. Through experiences and conversation, we’ll explore possible ways that worship can fill us with warmth, graciousness, belonging and inspiration.
